Chapter 835: The rear army attacked, and the southern road changed
"Caught in an ambush and surrounded?"
On the other side, in a clearing not far from the junction of Fanyang County, in a group of soldiers and horses who were encamped, Duan Piyan, who was located in the big tent, received the news of asking for help in front of him, and immediately squinted his eyes.
"In this place, there are thousands of people who can ambush him Duan Jin, in terms of terrain and power, only Chen Shouyi's men and horses, but the question is, for no reason, why did Chen Shouyi ambush in advance? And how could Duan Jin be defeated so easily? ”
After Duan Piyan received the request for help, he only hesitated for a while, but did not immediately start the rescue, but first arranged scouts and asked them to go over and investigate as quickly as possible.
At present, the soldiers and horses led by Duan Piyan have nearly 20,000 combat troops, including infantry and cavalry, and most of the cavalry are Duan Xianbei's own people.
Coupled with a lot of baggage troops, the entire army and horses are nearly 80,000 people, so many people, it is not easy to act, it requires a strict and strict mobilization and command system, and this camping is a series of things, plus it involves the problem of fire and cooking, it is easy to rush out, it is very likely to cause chaos, Duan Piyan has to be cautious.
On the other hand, according to the original plan, that Duan Jin went into battle lightly, led a part of the men and horses to attack the city, first laid the foundation, laid the front station, and spread the situation, and then Duan Piyan would lead the army over and completely lay the victory.
But now the soldiers and horses that were originally used for pioneering purposes were suddenly rumored to be besieged and in danger, and then let the main force that was supposed to be behind the palace go to the rescue, which is tantamount to completely disrupting the plan.
"However, if it is ambushed and encircled by Chen Zhi, it means that this raid is completely bankrupt, and it doesn't make much sense for my soldiers and horses to stay in the rear, on the other hand, if Duan Jin's soldiers and horses completely collapse, then they will lose their combat power in vain, and maybe they will fall into intelligence and strategic passivity, once it is determined, they really can't sit and wait."
After the order was passed down, Duan Piyan fell into deep thought, and soon summoned several of his staff members to discuss how to deal with it.
These people also showed great surprise at Duan Jin's ambush, first sneering at Duan Jin, and only when Duan Piyan raised his hand to signal, they stopped.
"That Duan Jin has already taken refuge in General Wang, and he is also a confidant of the general, this expedition is mainly with the general's foot soldiers, it is said that the combat power is also good, this foot soldier has fought in Pingzhou before, and has made many military exploits, it should not be easily defeated, I think that Duan Jin is probably to preserve strength, lie about the military situation, and want us to go up for a while."
"This may not be nothing, when he was quelling the rebellion in Pingzhou before, Duan Jin once used chicken feathers as an arrow, mobilized our Duan troops and horses, and acted as a pawn for him, and in the end, our people were killed and injured, but he was rewarded, and he was promised by the general, saying that he wanted to add an official to the knighthood, just waiting for this attack on the dynasty, and the two merits will be rewarded, in this case, what he does will not be surprising."
"Having said that, if he is really blocked and attacked by the people of Daijun, then he still has to be careful, after all, no matter how he says, he is also a pioneer, and he has the responsibility of guarding the headquarters, if it is really difficult to resist, there will be no barrier in front of us."
Several staff, most of them are from the Han family, but they are all the kind of people who have no hope of being able to enter the lord family, they analyze things, many footholds are power and strategy, cover this time to send troops, Youzhou can be described as a large army pressure realm, in their opinion, this kind of military situation, Daijun is difficult to resist no matter what, to take into account, the main thing is how to divide the merits, how to snatch the results.
Listening to the analysis of several people, Duan Piyan frowned, he suddenly coughed, and everyone shut up rationally, and then said: "What you said has some truth, but after all, I don't know about Daijun, I have been in Daijun for a while, and even seized the opportunity to see the single-tip artillery, and know the power of this weapon, if there is the support of the single-tip cannon and the fire, no matter how capable Duan Jin is, it will be difficult to counterattack for a while, and it is normal to be temporarily thwarted." ”
As soon as his argument came out, the others were not able to say anything, and waited for instructions.
Sure enough, Duan Piyan followed and said: "Whether he Duan Jin wants to retain his strength, or whether he is really alone, since he has been ambushed, it means that the plan to march secretly and then raid Daijun is going to be unsustainable, since this is the case, then he should not continue to divide his troops, but combine his troops in one place......
It's still saying that the scout who sent out to investigate has paid off.
Before and after or, but just a cup of tea time.
With such a fast speed, even this piece of Pi Yan was a little surprised, and he couldn't help asking: "What, has the situation over there been confirmed?" ”
"Hui Hao Shuai, this ......" There were many scouts who were sent out, but only two came back at this time, after they were questioned, they looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The others are still further probing and trying to get in touch with General Duan Jin, and we will come back first." ”
"So, you haven't met Duan Jin yet?" Duan Piyan was suddenly a little unhappy, "Then what did you find when you came back in such a hurry?" ”
The question here has not yet fallen, and suddenly another spy over there came to report, but this time it was not the person who was sent to contact Duan Jin, but the scouts of Duan Pipan's headquarters to probe the surrounding situation, in other words, this is Duan Pipan's troops, which were originally sent out to understand the situation and use it as a warning.
"Returning to Haoshuai, in the surrounding Shun forest, I found the Han family...... No, it's an enemy scout, and I can't be sure of my identity yet. ”
"Even I'm starting to have enemy scouts here?" When Duan Piyan heard this, his heart froze, and then he looked at the two scouts who came over first, "What's the situation on your side, you also met the other party's scouts?" ”
The two people hurriedly replied: "It's not that we met the scouts, but we saw the remnants of the army, there are quite a few of them, all of them are running in all directions, we stopped the two inquiries, but the other party said that the soldiers and horses led by General Duan Jin have been completely defeated!" ”
"A complete rout?"
Duan Piyan stood up with a solemn expression.
At this time, the scouts who were quickly dispatched passed the news back intermittently, like pieces of a puzzle, putting together the complete situation in front of Duan Piyan and everyone.
"It's a good Duan Jin, usually with a lot of tone, but now before he left the country, he was defeated by someone, surrounded in the forest, waiting for rescue, otherwise he will be wiped out!" Duan Piyan's face was full of iron, in this situation, if he didn't save it, Wang Jun might investigate it afterwards, but once he rescued, the strategy would be completely messed up.
Everyone's eyes fell on him, waiting for his decision.
Under heavy pressure, Duan Piyan took a deep breath and said, "Command the army, prepare to send troops!" ”?
